Top 80s rock bands/songs thread

Post by Vitriola »

In no particular order:

Judas Priest - Out in The Cold - If you've never felt that way, you're not human.

Queensryche - Screaming In Digital - If you've ever felt that way, that really says something. I want to hear from you.

Motley Crue - Livewire - How can you not want to fuck shit up to this?

Great White - Lady Red Light, Rock Me, House of Broken Love - Totally the 80s vibe, more about emotion and darkness than partying and doing shitloads of coke.

Dirty Looks - Blue Tequila, Let It Rain - More on the darkside of 80s pseudo-grandeur and general downtrodden-ness. Forlorn yearning and disappointment. Blues infested and heartbreaking.

Winger - Spell I'm Under, Junkyard Dog - Early 90s, but real emotion there, in a couple ways. Good shit.

Def Leppard - Women - a truly ingenious song. All men can get this. Not about pussy, but about someone just having your back, and being pretty hot in the meantime.

Scorpions - Rock You Like A Hurricane, Coming Home, Media Overkill - One of the best bands ever, but the best songs are not the ones overplayed by Ye Olde Classic Rocke Station. RYLAH was, but not the other 2.

Guns 'N' Roses - Rocket Queen, You Could Be Mine - The singles that were singles but don't get the play that the others do. Also, early 90s. Go be a man now.

Night Ranger - Sister Christian, Don't Tell Me You Love Me - Oh, come, on, like you don't like these.

Firehouse - All She Wrote - I guarantee every single woman has done this. Watch out, she has it in her, even if you think she doesn't.

Danger Danger - Naughty Naughty - The quintessential 80s song, what the 80s were all about, and what the other decades should be about, too. Just good times, man. I want to suck cock to this song.

Bang Tango - Walks Like A Woman - They're all this way, trust me. It's good, though. Trust me on that, too.

I can't help but notice that your list lacks both Devo and the Talking Heads.

I will write a poprock/techno thread later. This one was all about the hair bands.

Also, I would have lots of Danger Danger song on repeat, except it has been on my Soulseek wishlist for about 2 years, and nobody has it. Anyone that could get me an mp3 would be most thanked.

Update: I am apparently on some back end of Soulseek, as gsdgsd found the song within 10 minutes of my posting that I wanted it. Thanks!
